The Contract Marriage

Chapter 198

Although she felt lonely without Christian, it was a good thing that she had her mother by her side. Sarah’s life was pretty good. After what happened in the villa last time, Julian never bothered her again.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Sarah was already five months pregnant. Her stomach was protruding and she looked like a standard pregnant woman. Although Syrus had already made it clear that he wanted her to take a vacation, Sarah did not want to stay at home all the time. She still insisted on going to work every day, but her work was much easier.

When Sarah woke up early in the morning, she received a call from her good friend Kendall. Kendall said that she wanted to come to her house as a guest.

After breakfast, Sarah followed her mother to the market. She bought some vegetables and meat and carried them back to the neighborhood. Just as she walked to the entrance, Sarah saw Kendall coming down from a taxi.

Kendall happily smiled and ran towards Sarah.

“Hello Auntie!” Kendall first greeted Samantha with a smile and then lifted the vegetables in Sarah’s hands without any explanation and smiled as she held her arm. “I say, big belle, you already have such a figure. In the future, you should not run to the market. There are some flavors in there. Can you bear that?”

Sarah smiled. “I have no reaction. Other than my stomach being a little bigger, everything else is pretty good.”

Samantha had always been very familiar with her daughter’s good friend, Kendall. Hearing the conversation between the two, she smiled and asked, “Kendall, have you had a boyfriend during this

period of time?”

When she heard Samantha ask her, Kendall smiled. “I really did have a boyfriend, but it doesn’t feel very good. I told him goodbye two days ago.”

Samantha heard Kendall’s words and immediately looked at her daughter with a smile. “By the way, Sarah, didn’t you say two days ago that David is going back to the country today? I think Kendall and David are quite compatible. If Kendall feels that it is still okay, how about I help you guys to connect?”

Samantha previously did not know about the matter between David and Kendall. She only felt that the two young people looked not bad.

Hearing Samantha’s words, Kendall immediately smiled happily and nodded, “Then thank you aunty!”

After saying that, she looked at her good friend beside her. She asked in disbelief, “Mr. David really came back to the country today?”

Three months ago, when David went abroad, Kendall had heard this news from Sarah. She was a little excited when she heard that David was returning today. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Although David had rejected her previously, Kendall had never given up on him.

Sarah smiled and nodded. “Yes, the flight at three o’clock in the afternoon.”

“Then why don’t we. . . Go and receive him together.” Kendall looked at Sarah and suggested.

“Is that okay? Mr. David called me before and didn’t let me pick up.”

Sarah did not have any plans in this regard. After all, she was pregnant now. Moreover, she had heard from Syrus that Jasmine liked Mr. David very much, so Sarah wanted to keep a distance from David as much as possible now.

“What is it then? He didn’t want you to go because he was worried about your health. If you really went, he would be very happy.” Kendall really wanted to go.

Samantha saw Kendall’s happy mood and smiled at her daughter, “You haven’t seen David for three months, so go with Kendall to receive him.”

Actually, Samantha hoped that David and Kendall could be together.

“That’s right. Mr. David was so good to you before, let’s go together.” Kendall looked at her with anticipation.

Sarah looked at her and could not help but smile. “Alright. Then I will go with you.”

The three of them returned home and Samantha took the things into the kitchen to pack. Sarah brought Kendall into her bedroom.

The moment she walked in, Kendall saw the baby bed beside the big bed. She walked over to take a look and then looked at the toys that Christian had bought for the child in advance. She looked at Sarah with a little envy.

“I told you, once Chief Cooper stands up. . . He will definitely be a good husband. Sarah, you are so lucky. You accidentally picked up a chief and married him back home. Look at how well he treats you! I am really jealous. . .”

Kendall said as she sat down by the bed. She looked at her good friend and sighed.

Sarah heard her words and could not help but smile. She sat beside her and nodded with some emotion, “Yes. I also didn’t expect him to stand up. What made me even more surprised was that he actually started to like me when I was still engaged to Julian.”

Thinking back to the past events, Sarah still found it hard to believe.

“That’s why I said it. You’re too lucky. Unlike me, it was not easy for me to find someone I like and the one who I found… He still has you in his heart. . .” Kendall looked at Sarah and smiled.

Sarah knew that her good friend was talking about David, so she you must not think too much.”

“Silly, I don’t blame you. Besides, David had already explained it to me.”

“Are you still a little unwilling to let him go?” Sarah could tell that Kendall was still reluctant to part with Mr. David.

“Yes, you said that he had also experienced Mila’s matter. Will he look at me again?” Kendall still had hope for David.

Sarah looked at her good friend’s expression and felt that it was better to tell her some things first. She slightly pursed her lower lip and replied, “Kendall, there is something I still need to tell you first. . .”

it?”

“Actually. . . Our company’s vice president has always liked Mr. David. . .”

“Vice President? Could it be the woman Mr. David crashed into his car?”

“What about Mr. David? Do you like her too?”

“I’m not sure about that. . .”

“That means Mr. David still doesn’t like her! I still have hope. . .”

“Do you really plan to chase after him again?”

“Of course! As long as he isn’t married, I have hope! So this time, you have to help me! “

him.”

to go?”

“You are truly unyielding.”

“Haha! Let me tell you, this time I have thought of a good idea. You must support me!”

“Actually, I’ve already resigned from the company yesterday. I want to be Mr. David’s secretary. As long as I have the opportunity to get along with him, I have the confidence to catch up with him.”

“Are you serious?” Sarah looked at her speechlessly.

“Of course! Anyway, you and Christian are now a real husband and wife. Mr. David must have given up on you now. Therefore, I can’t let go of such a good opportunity no matter what.”

“But. . . I don’t remember him having any secretary. . .”

“Sarah, don’t worry. If I don’t succeed this time, then I will give up completely! I am your good friend. You have to help me no matter what. Otherwise, I won’t recognize you as my friend anymore!”

Sarah heard her words and felt a little awkward. But looking at her friend’s expectant eyes, she still helplessly nodded. “Alright, then I’ll bring you along in the afternoon.”

Because Vivian previously treated Greta to a few meals alone, the two of them did not take long to get familiar with each other.

Vivian shared her thoughts with Greta. When she heard that Vivian wanted to see the child’s gender, Greta readily agreed.

About three months ago, Vivian had Greta examine her once. But the results of the examination made her greatly disappointed!

Greta told her that she was carrying a daughter in her womb!

Such an outcome made her suffer a huge blow!

Vivian really could not accept such a reality. Fortunately, Greta said that the examination might not be very accurate in three months. In five months, the examination would be very accurate.

It was already five months’ time today and Vivian came to the hospital with the last glimmer of hope. Because she had already made an appointment with Greta, even though there were quite a number of people who came to do the check-up, Vivian still finished the ultrasound very quickly.

She took the examination results and went to Greta’s consultation room. She walked to the chair beside her desk and sat down. She then handed the examination results in her hand to Greta.

“Doctor Hughes, how is it? Is it a boy or a girl?” Vivian nervously looked at her and asked. Actually, before coming here, she had already asked Lucas to get someone to bring her to another hospital for a check-up. The result was the same as what Greta said. It was a daughter!

So today, she came with her last hope. When she looked at Greta, her palms were so nervous that they were about to sweat.

Greta looked at the color ultrasound in her hands and frowned slightly. After a while, she looked at her and said truthfully, “Just like what I saw three months ago, you are carrying a daughter!”

“Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! When I was pregnant previously, there was a person who knew how to look at appearances and she said that I was carrying a boy. How could this be a

daughter?” Vivian could not accept it and directly shook her head. She could not believe that she was carrying a girl in her womb!

Greta saw her expression and slightly blinked her eyes and looked at her teasingly, “Aren’t you also a woman? What’s wrong with my daughter? Is it that important to you?”

“Of course it’s important! Julian and I can only have one child. If it’s a daughter. . . How are we going to inherit the Cooper Family’s properties in the future?” Vivian was already familiar with Greta, so she did not mind telling Greta these things.

Greta heard her words and smiled, “Even if you are carrying a daughter, isn’t there still Sarah? As long as she is carrying a son, doesn’t the Cooper Family’s business also have someone inheriting it? This kind of thing was fated. Besides, what you have now has already made many women envious. . .”

“What’s the use of that? When my daughter marries someone in the future, no matter how glorious it is, she won’t be able to take anything. I cannot watch helplessly as the Cooper Group falls into the hands of Sarah alone!”

Vivian’s expression was somewhat agitated. Daphne was originally a woman of power. If Daphne heard that she was carrying a girl, what would she do to her?

And Julian. He said that as long as she was carrying a son, he would give her a villa!

But now Greta told her that she was carrying a daughter!

Seeing Vivian’s slightly excited expression, Greta helplessly spread out her hands, “I really can’t help you with this. She has already grown in your stomach for five months. If you really don’t want to give birth to her, then you can only run away. But no matter what, it is still a life. You should think twice before doing anything. . .”
